Breathtaking experience, with the best guide and company
5/5

We booked with Ozon Light Tours a few months before heading to Tanzania. Nuhu and the team were incredibly supportive and patient during this process; we had wanted to amend the original 7 day luxury safari to change a few of the itinerary plans and they were super helpful in accommodating it - which meant we had a tailor-made safari. They also checked in with us in the lead up to the safari, to make sure we were prepared.

Our guide Issa is a credit to the company and simply an exceptional person. He was so kind, knowledgeable and helped the safari be an amazing experience. We managed to see the big 5 and more, and thanks to Issa’s great driving and knowledge of the safaris, we were in prime spots to see the animals up close and on so many occasions. We felt in safe hands and had a great time.

Accommodation was impeccably booked by Ozon and handled by them / Issa which made each stay seemless, and each stay was a wonderful experience (we even had accommodation upgraded due to Ozon listening to other customer feedback).

Genuinely cannot recommend Issa enough and would highly recommend him to any person coming on safari, and would recommend Ozon Light tours for any Tanzanian safari.

Our review of our tour guide, Kessi
This safari tour was outstanding. Our driver was punctual for all meetups, displayed excellent manners, and had a wealth of knowledge about Africa, enriching our journey. The vehicle was comfortably equipped with plush cushions and a mini-fridge stocked with cold beverages, making the long drives pleasant. Daily lunches were tasty, and his engaging conversation added depth to our trip. We saw an incredible array of wildlife: hyenas, foxes, rabbits, over 30 hippos, packs of wild elephants, dozens of wildebeests and zebras, prides of lions multiple times, and on our last day, two cheetahs. A memorable highlight was having lunch under an acacia tree just 10 feet from two lions, with another in the distance. We even took a hot air balloon ride over the Serengeti. Despite the lengthy drives, his informative and friendly demeanor made them enjoyable. We highly recommend this safari to those eager to explore in comfort and safety. Under his guidance, we felt secure and well cared for, making the entire experience truly memorable.

They were excellent with great cars and guides.
5/5

The safari was great and would definitely recommend. Albert and Issa were both great drivers and guides. Whenever they heard that something cool was happening they would get us there as fast as possible so we wouldn’t miss out. An example of this was when there was a leopard they got us there as fast as possible so we got to see it for as long as possible.

Albert and Issa are absolutely amazing drivers and guides and would recommend.
5/5

I would absolutely recommend ozon light tours for a safari! Albert and Issa are amazing drivers, they are always on the lookout for interesting animals such as leopards which we saw 2 of because of their amazing spotting. Ozon light tours are also very inclusive and include children and make them feel welcome as I would know because I am a child. They also explain facts and definitions about animals and plants very clearly and make it easy to understand. Don’t you want to see the speed at which a cheetah runs ,don’t you want to see how big a giraffe actually is and finally don’t you want to know what it’s like on an amazing safari with Albert and Issa?

If you book Ozon light tours with Albert and Issa as your drivers and guides you will without a doubt you will enjoy it, see many animals and experience a once in a lifetime opportunity.

Amazing experience with excellent guides
5/5

The short review of our safari with our guides Albert and Issa from Ozon Light Tours is that it was amazing, exceeded our expectations, and I would highly recommend them.

The long version….

Albert and Issa were extremely knowledgeable, and excellent with our children aged 10, 12, and 14. They were consistently safe drivers over long days, rough roads, and while ensuring we got to all the right places at the right times to see a huge variety of animals including the big 5. This included seeing 3 cheetahs stalk and kill a gazelle, two leopards including one actively stalking very close to our vehicles, a rhino, and lions feeding twice. This is as well as the many other animals we saw - giraffes, elephants, zebras, wildebeest, buffaloes, and many more.

They had excellent ideas about itineraries that would work for our group of 10 (4 adults and 6 children aged 8 through 14), and they were very flexible in accommodating our itinerary and accommodation requests.

Albert and Issa told us about the animals we saw in detail, and answered our many questions about the animals, the national parks, local culture and history.

Highly recommended and extremely happy with our safari experience!

Amazing
5/5

The safari with Ozon Light and Kessy was amazing. We did a six day tour through Tarangire, Central and North Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara.
The landscape, the animals and the accommodations were amazing.
Kessy was amazing. He really had an eye for all the animals and spotted a lots of things. He decided rather going were all the other cars were but spotted some really nice places. So we had a few amazing moments with hardly no other people around. Like giving birth of a hyena, saw a rhino crossing the street directly behind our car, watching a family of leon and many more.
Kessy knows a lot about nature but also culture and history of Tanzania.
Furthermore we had so much fun with him.
We really enjoyed our time.

Above and Beyond: The Perfect Safari
5/5

Going on a safari in Tanzania is already a 5-star experience, which is why you'll find so many positive reviews for different operators. But we believe that Ozon Light, and especially their guide Augustino, go above and beyond for these reasons:

1. Price: After comparing the quotes we received, it was clear that Ozon Light offers the same quality accommodation at better prices, which makes them a great option.

2. Communication and Planning: Clinton was very responsive and helpful when we were adjusting the schedule for our safari. He helped us with changes to the hotels and the routes we took, which resulted in a perfect plan. What we appreciated most was that he never pushed us to make decisions and always respected what we wanted.

3. Our Amazing Tour Guide, Augustino: Having the right guide is one of the most important parts of a safari, and we were lucky to have Augustino with us. With many years of experience, he always knew the best places to go, and somehow, we were always a step ahead of the rest, giving us the best views of the animals. Even for lunch stops, he always chose the perfect spots. A unique aspect was that he was always open to sharing information about life in Tanzania, so we learned a lot about the local culture, which made the experience much more meaningful. But what made the experience even better was his kind personality. After a week with him, we didn’t just have a great guide—we made a new friend!

In conclusion, we would strongly recommend Ozon Light for your safari in Tanzania. It’s a small company, and this means you get a more personal experience that focuses on you, making it a truly unique adventure.
